Book The Dean s List

Download or read book The Dean s List written by Art Chansky and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2009-09-26 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1961 a thirty-year-old, soft-spoken coach took over a basketball program that had been rocked by accusations and internal concerns regarding recruiting violations and the image of the team. Today that coach has won nearly 80 percent of his games, finished first in the Atlantic Coast Conference 17 times, won 12 ACC Tournament titles, one Olympic gold medal, an NIT trophy, and two NCAA championships. Among the athletes he has put on the court are players named Jordan, Stackhouse, Worthy, Perkins, and Wallace - no fewer than 24 NBA first-round draft choices. And the Dean Smith story - a story of competition, compassion, and basketball genius - is a saga unfolding today: a legend of American sports. This beautiful volume, illustrated with full-color photographs, is a basketball odyssey of three decades, from Dean Edwards Smith's first coaching job at the Air Force Academy (with the golf team) to his most recent and 22nd consecutive appearance in the NCAA Tournament. In between are lean years and great years, bitter defeats, stunning victories, and vintage Carolina comebacks as Smith took over the badly shaken Tar Heel program from the legendary Frank McGuire. The Dean's List will conjure up vivid memories for college hoop fans - such moments as the Tar Heels' injury-riddled run to the 1977 national title game and heartbreaking loss to Marquette, the fervent battles with archrival Duke, and the incredible NCAA championship victories over Georgetown in 1982 and Michigan in 1993. And here too are the contests waged outside the public eye - recruiting struggles for such players as Tom McMillen, David Thompson, and Phil Ford, as well as the racially charged controversy that surrounded North Carolina's first black scholarship athlete, Charlie Scott. Away from the court, we see the tough and tender personal qualities that have allowed Dean Smith to run a program beyond reproach and graduate 97 percent of his players.

Book excerpt: Deception, deceit, extortion, high tech espionage, and violence. If these things were preceded by the phrase "the answer is" on the game show Jeopardy, you wouldn't expect the question to be "things found at a college."

The Dean's List chronicles a takeover battle involving an agressive conglomerate, Tribax, and Seward, a succesful proprietary college. The struggle divides the college and is characterized by underhanded dealings, black mail, and violence. The main character of the book, Joe Hammond, who is the Dean of Admissions at this fictitious college, struggles to the fight the good fight against the takeover while dealing with personal issues involving an affair with a young girl and the break-up of his marriage. The Dean's List is packed with twists and turns as well as a surprise ending. A great read from start to finsh.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Dean’s List, Matthew A. Waller provides a roadmap for anyone who leads or aspires to lead a business college. Waller, dean of the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas since 2015, offers a variety of practical tools and insights for leading effectively and confidently in the challenging, ever-evolving landscape of collegiate administration.

Book excerpt: S.E. Hinton meets Cruel Intentions in this exciting and fast paced thriller by Jimmy Petrosino. Growing up, Dean Perrasani always dreamed of following in the footsteps of his idol and older brother, Tyler. At nineteen his dream would be fulfilled. Dean is now president of Phi Beta Regnum, the very fraternity Tyler ran nearly ten years earlier. To the outsider Regnum is your typical fraternity. But that’s what they want everybody to believe. Secretly it’s a crime syndicate created by one of the most ruthless mobsters in the world, Alfred Calarone. Seeing how much revenue could be generated on a university campus, Calarone took the same blueprint that worked for the mafia for so many years and implemented it onto a university, using teenagers with troubled pasts to do his dirty work. Dean, like the men before him, including Tyler, must run the fraternity like a mafia don. He must create his very own caporegime. And he must become immune to the violence and backstabbing that comes with the job. But Dean believes he can be different than the men before him, even his brother, and run the fraternity as a legitimate enterprise. But how? Not knowing his friends from his enemies, Dean must keep himself in power long enough to pull off his master plan—to exact revenge on those responsible for murdering his older brother.
